Each team brings their own positives.
ATM brings lots of money, more than even Bama. South Carolina has great fan support and has usually been competitive. Arkansas supercharged an old rivalry with Ole Miss and they developed ones with both MS State and LSU. So overall, new teams have brought something to the table.
The lone outlier has been Missouri. When we invited them, I was scratching my head (as were a lot of us) and their school's antics of allowing a bunch of leftwing nutters to take over their campus was a damn embarrassment to the conference. So yeah, if we could lose them, I wouldn't be too upset. They are like the drunk cousin that nobody wants to claim a connection with.
As for OU or Texas, I can't tell yet. Let's see how they make their presence known in 2024.

I think the SEC thought inviting Misery would open the St. Louis and Kansas City markets to us. They miscalculated - because neither market cares about Misery.
